Chapter 18 tension
Outside things were getting worse. The citizens were yelling and shouting at the guards. Kaz was with the people as he just stood at the side lines and watched.
"This is getting out of hand. If only my buddy Yamada was here right now" he said to himself.
That's when he heard some of the people speak.
"I am thankful that we were rescued, But here...they're savage" a woman said.
"We're just citizens, Not right wing nationalists!" a man said.
"Yeah. You're right! We're peace loving who love our peaceful Japan! Showing us that thing with that killer like that all of a sudden was just indecent!".
That's when another citizen spoke out.
"We need to wait and see. Before long, The government will have everything back to normal. They even have the support of the American army, But until then, We just need to play along..." he said.
Another woman shouted.
"We don't need to be saved by the self-defense force or the American army! I don't want to be saved by something that only exists to increase tensions in Asia!" she said, One of the guards sighed.
The group all came to the front as the guard walled over to them. He told Souichiro what was going on with the situation.
Souichiro then turned to his daughter and told her what he wanted her to do.
"Why should I do something like that!?" Saya said.
Souichiro just looked at her.
"If you speak with them, My daughter, I will know you are not a fool!" he said.
Saya just looked at him as her mother added in.
"Saya, Your mother is asking you as well. Those people would be too careful about what they say if your father or I were to go" Yuriko said.
"I-I'll go with her" Kohta said.
"I'll go too" Takashi said.
"Me too" Rei said.
That's when Shizuka looked at her.
"You can't Miyamoto! We have to put on more of that ointment now!" she said as she tightened her fist, Rei then started to run as Shizuka chased her.
"Nooo!" Rei cried.
Saya crossed her arms.
"Nngh".
"I can go" Yuuki said.
"I'll accompany you as well" Saeko said.
Souichiro turned to her.
"No, I would like to speak with you for a time, Daughter of Busujima" he said.
Saeko nodded at him.
"I will speak with you If there's anything you want to say, Don" she said.
"I'll go with Saya too" Alice said.
Yuriko kneeled down to Alice.
"Alice, Maybe you should come with auntie instead. She has a present for Zeke" she said.
This made Alice's ears perk up.
"A present? Okay! Yay, Zeke!" she said.
Saya gulped as she saw the group of people turn to her. That's when she felt Someone place there hand on her shoulder, She looked to see that it was Ross who was smiling at her.
"Ross, What are you?".
"I'll go with you" he said.
-meanwhile-
Shido was in the bus as he was watching his followers having their "Free time".
Shido sighed as he smiled.
"There is no better aphrodisiac than fear" he said quietly. He then started to clap his hands together.
"Everyone, Your attention please! Attention! Free time is over!" he said.
That's when a voice called out to him.
"Aww, But I was about to cum inside my beautiful little Taniuchi" he said as he held Taniuchi close to his bare chest. The boy had white long hair that was spiky covering his left eye, The same light skin color as Ross, Brown hazel eyes, And an X shaped scar over his face.
Taniuchi wrapped her arms around the boy tightly in a loving embrace.
"Oh your such a sweetheart!" she said as she kissed him "You just make me want you more baby!". The boy then grabbed her ass as he licked her cheek.
"Well thank you my love" he said with a wink making Taniuchi blush madly as she nuzzled him, Shido smiled at the boy.
"Well my dear friend, There will be penalty of time for that. I have some news from our heroic friend who went out on his own. I just spoke with Kurokami" he said "We'll be welcoming a group of refugees! It sounds like they're a rather large group!".
He then placed his left hand over his chest.
"But as the teacher who is supposed to be guiding you all, There's something I've been worrying about!" Shido said.
Everyone besides the new member had worried looks on there faces, Taniuchi just held onto the boy tightly as he wrapped his arms around her waist lovingly.
"Unlike when we were at school, I am encouraging you all to love freely now" Shido said as he smirked "Why is that you wonder? I've determined that you are all qualified to do so! I take serious pride in being a teacher of the group of such wonderful students as yourselfs!". Everyone smiled as Shido then pointed at the window.
"But...please look outside. Look at this pitiful situation!" he said.
They all looked out the window as they saw 'them' roaming about. The new member just smirked.
'These things are always and will always never be a match for me' he thought.
"This world has become filled with the living dead who wish to bring harm to others! And...most of the people who are still alive think it's okay to only be concerned with themselves! How dreadful the reality of the world is! Excluding us, Of course, That's how everyone in the world is now! No, The world has been that kind of place for a long time now!" Shido said as he then raised his right arm.
"This tainted world...is being being brought to ruin by such sinners! But all of you are different! Still young, You've faced travesties and had your relatives torn from you! You are the angels that will create the new world", Shido then tightened his hands.
"I'm just a dirty adult who cannot hope to match you, But...I'm begging you, I want you to purify me of my sins" he said as tears came down his face.
Everyone besides the new member were entranced by his words as he continued.
"Everyone, Please guide me somehow! I want to see the new world you will create after this chaos! To achieve that ends, As an adult and as a teacher, I am happy to take on the burden of being our leader! Now our hearts are as one! We can only overcome this crisis with strength as a group!" he said as he held out his arms "Let's build a new world together with just us, And continue to grow closer!".
Everyone clapped at Shido's words, Everyone but the new member and Yamada.
Shido took notice of this.
"What's wrong, Yamada?" he asked him as he walked over to him.
Yamada glanced away from him.
"It's weird. What you're saying is weird" he said.
Shido then glanced at the new member as they both smirked at each other.
"Oh?" Shido and the new member said.
Yamada then stood up.
"I don't care about this new world order or whatever. For now, I just want to make sure my family's okay. As well as my best friend Kaz" he said.
Tsunoda then shouted at him.
"Family? Who gives a shit about them!?" he said "You've just been quiet this whole time! You haven't even been playin' around with any of the girls!".
Yamada had a nervous look.
"Yeah, But still" he said.
That's when the new member added in.
"If you think if you were with your parents!" he said as he then pulled up Taniuchi and Kawamato's bras showing there breasts "You wouldn't be able to get away with doing shit like this!".
Tsunoda smiled at him.
"Your damn right man!" he said "Haha, I love this! Shido let's us do this all we want! He's fucking awesome! Not only that, But the new guy is just as badass as him. I'd follow these guys anywhere!" he said.
Yamada shook his head at them.
"That's...exactly what I'm talking about; It's weird! I want to see my mom and dad! I want to see my best friend Kazuhira Hideki to know that he's safe!" that's when Yamada looked away "I should have just went with Ross".
Hearing Ross's name made everyone glare at him.
"Don't you ever bring up that freaks name again!" Tsunoda said.
Taniuchi nodded in agreement.
"Yeah! That guy is a monster! He was gonna try and kill Shido! And you're gonna stick up for him!?" she said.
Yamada nodded his head.
"Yes! I don't care what he is! I just think I should have gone with him. His group had a goal to follow, And I should have went with them!" he said.
"I see".
Yamada looked to see Shido standing over him.
"So your taking the side of a boy who would kill your beloved teacher?" he said "Well everyone. How should we deal with what Yamada is saying? He has decided to take the side of a child who has demonic powers. Should we return him to the world that is trying to rob us of our freedom? Or...must we direct him along the right path and to our new world of freedom?" Shido said.
That's when he turned to the new member of the group.
"What do you think my friend? he asked him.
The new member smiled as he placed Taniuchi next to his side, He then got his weapon off the floor. It was a blood stained large claymore sword.
The new member then leaned up to Yamada's face as he had the blade at this throat.
"I have two choices, I can kill him right now. Or, We kick him out" he said with a dark smile, Yamada was frightened of the boy as his weapon touched his skin with it's cold stained blade.
"Yeah! Let's kick him out and leave him on his own! Good thinking pal!" Tsunoda said.
That's when they started chanting.
"Kick him out. Kick him out. Kick him out".
That's when the boy grabbed Yamada by the neck as he dragged him to the back and opened the emergency door.
"Teacher, Please. At least let me stay until we're a bit closer to my house!" he cried, Shido just looked at him.
"I'm afraid that decision is up to everyone else" Shido said "What should we do?".
The new member smiled.
"Already thought of an answer!" he said as he threw Yamada out into the street.
Yamada fell to the ground as he quickly got back up.
"I'm sorry, I was wrong. Help me!" Yamada cried.
"Sorry kid, But it seems that I'm all out of fucks to give!" the new member said.
The new member closed the door as the other students laughed at him as they then drove off.
Yamada tried to chase them down, Only for one of 'them' to come after him.
-meanwhile at the Takagi manor-
The group was trying their best to calm the people down about the situation that was at hand.
However.
"How many times do I have to say it before you'll understand!?" Saya said as she was holding Ross's hand.
"The idea that a disease is turning people into murderers is total bullshit!" a civilian woman said.
"They can't be arrived at any definite conclusion regarding 'them' so it's just a lie spread by the government to keep the chaos from increasing" Saya said.
Another civilian spoke out.
"So you're saying that the dead bodies really are running about? Don't be ridiculous!" he said.
Saya sighed as she fixed her glasses.
"It certainly does look like an epidemic of a new disease, But I'm serious! 'they' aren't even remotely human. Couldn't you see that in my pa...in Don Takagi's demonstration? I saw it at the school...couldn't you see it in the city!?" she said "You should have been able to see they started moving again after they died!".
The male civilian just looked at her.
"It is a bit unbelievable that they just keep getting back up, But there has to be a perfectly reasonable explanation" he said.
The civilian woman then spoke up.
"Yeah! The reason is that they never died in the first place!" she said.
Ross was getting angry from hearing this woman.
"She's trying to explain to you what is going on!" he roared as he stepped forward, Saya squeezed his hand a bit trying her best to calm him down.
'This is bad, If this woman doesn't just accept what's happening. Then were going to have a whole lot more problems on our hands' she thought as she got her words together in her head as she started to speak again.
"If that was the case then that'd be great, But do you think amateurs can really make any of judgment here? Until the specialists can become settled and researched this then we won't know anything! I'm sorry, But it's just not possible for us to say. Do you disagree?" she said.
The civilian just gritted her teeth.
"W-well..." she said.
Saya continued.
"You can't can you? Then just worry about keeping yourself from becoming food for 'them'! That's all that matters right now!" she said "My papa already said he doesn't know what to do with you, didn't he?".
Ross then smiled at Saya.
"Good job" he said.
Saya just smirked at him.
"Heh, What did you expect from your little genius" she said.
However, The group then heard the civilian woman start laughing.
Ross glared at her.
"What's so funny!?" he said.
"That's what you want to say isn't it?" she said "Now that I think about it, You're just a bunch of gun waving highschool brats!".
The group just looked at her. But as for Ross, He was starting to lose his temper faster and faster with each passing second he heard the woman talk.
The woman then turned to the group of people.
"It's obviously true! She's the daughter of a right wing gangster! Threats and violence! They're using these despite all the trouble everyone in the world is going through".
She then pointed her finger at Saya.
"Everyone, Listen to me! This girl is the daughter of a killer. They want to turn us into killers, Too!" she said.
The group was shocked at what the woman had just said.
Ross was fuming, He had just about had it with this person.
"What...in the world are you talking about?" Saya said.
That's when the civilians glared at them.
"children shouldn't interfere in matters like this!" the woman said.
Takashi spoke.
"Ch-chidren...? Is that all you see us as...?" he said.
The woman snapped back at him.
"Quiet! From here on, The adults will be making all the decisions! Us peace loving adults don't need any savage gangsters or highschool kids high on violence".
She then turned to the people.
"Everyone, Let's all decide on a representative! After that, We'll meet with Don Takagi and in order to help everyone, We'll donate our time and help as many people as we can!" she said.
The others just stood their and watched as they heard them babble on, Ross then released his hand from Saya's as he started walking over to them.
"W-wait a minute! Ross, What are you doing!?" Saya said.
Ross just ignored her as he walked over to them.
That's when Saya figured it out.
"Ross! No! Don't do it!" she yelled.
Kohta turned to her.
"What's wrong with Ross?" he said.
"He's going to confront them!".
Everyone panicked.
"What!?" Yuuki said.
Saya then ran after him.
"Ross stop! It's not worth it!" she said.
Ross was gritting his teeth to the point he had blood seeping out of his mouth, He finally had it with all of this, And he was going to put his foot down and stomp it into the ground.
He kept walking as he heard them still talking.
"Y-you're right! We have to solve our problems without resorting to violence!" one man yelled.
"Volunteers! Let's collect volunteers! If we work together, We can treat the people who have the killer disease! This opportunity will allow us to create a society of true freedom!" the woman said.
That's when she felt a tap on her shoulder.
The woman turned around to see Ross as his military hat shaded his eyes.
"What do you want!" she said "We have already made clear that we don't need-".
That's when Ross punched the woman in the face as hard as he could into the ground.
Saya stopped running as she took in what she had just saw.
"Ross..." she said.
The other civilians glared at the boy as they all surrounded him.
"You worthless brat! You think you can do that to adults!?" another woman said.
"Someone should put you in your place!" a man said.
"How dare you!" another man yelled.
"You're going to pay!".
That's when one of the civilians grabbed Ross by the collar.
"You think you're gonna act cool and beat up your elders like that!? This is why we don't need people like you! People that only resort to violence and use It to control other people!".
Saya then shouted at the civilian.
"Hey! Let him go! Don't hurt him!".
The civilian then glared at her.
"Shut your mouth! This is no place for children like you!" the civilian said.
That's when Ross grabbed the man by the neck and started to squeeze as hard as he could.
"Gah! W-what are you?".
Ross then gritted his teeth.
"I'm gonna...I'm gonna...".
He then let his hair and eyes turn, and his black lightning surge in his right hand.
Everyone was in shock at what they were looking at.
"What...what is he?".
"Tha-that's lightning!".
Some of the civilians then grabbed Ross as they held him down to the ground.
"You freak!" one person yelled.
Saya ran over to them and tried to get them off of Ross.
"Get off of him!" she cried.
That's when one of the civilians picked her up and threw her to the ground.
"Don't interfere!" the civilian yelled.
Kohta and Takashi ran over to Saya.
"Saya!" Ross cried.
That's when he finally snapped.
"I'm gonna...KILL YOU!".
